1000km - 11h30m , 87 km/h avg speed....means compare to old small Ioniq it is just ~30min faster :D I really have to buy used old Ioniq after I sell my Prius :) Good Job Bjorn.
Hmmmm I have a question. If you were thinking about buying a hatchback like Ioniq, why are you looking at an SUV like EQC for comparison? Shouldn't you be looking at other hatchback (or maybe sedans) since they're more comparable and comparing Ioniq to SUVs would skew the result of comparison? Have you already made up your mind that you want an Ioniq and are just comparing apples to oranges to justify that you want an Ioniq or am I missing something?
@@alexanderkeene6704 most people i assume (same as me), just watch these videos because they are either interested in bjorn, or electric cars in general... i doubt large percentage of people can even afford to buy this car... i know i cant for sure
@@biziluxgames8924 I know that but that isn't even what I was discussing though. Not even close to my point.
He is considering buying an Ioniq so I assume he can afford to buy a car. What I don''t get though is - which is why I asked in my first comment - why is he comparing the performance and price of an Ioniq hatchback to an EQC SUV. They're different cars made for different needs of people.
I am happy I bought an Ioniq back in 2017. Still good value with hyper efficiency, high charging rate of up to 67 kW, fairly low purchase price etc.
Thank you Björn for this vid. Last week i was on the road back from Barcelona to Lake of Constance with my Etron. From Perpignan up to Lyon we have had very strong, constantly headwinds up to 130 km/h. The fully loaded car with 3 Ebikes on a Thule behind, needs about 34,5 kw/ 100 km. Setting of ACC 130 km/h, driven by auto mode. It destroyed my calculation on ABRP completly. But the trip was nice and we are still waiting for more IONITY Chargers in the south of France.
Thank you so much for your work, and i agree with you, EQC is not a bad car. The power train comes from ZF, here from my Home town, Friedrichshafen and i think they have made a good first project.
EV ist the future, no doubt.

@@martian9999 I think the best way to get a good opinion on how evs perform in the real world, one should rent an ev for a month or so

@@randreas69 thanks, cap'n
1:15 LOL!
I'm half watching for the car, and half watching for the food vlog 😂
We NEED a supercut of all of Bjorn s eating, preferably in high speed banana box mode...
"Just have to pump my shaft." Bjorn, you crack me up!
I'm torn the live stream is one of the best tours of Norway to Germany but a lot of stareing at the back of trucks driving in the rain. This shows everything else.
Hey Bjorn, you should have set the car in Eco and recuperation in D Auto, for sure while driving on highway. Now you where not taking advantage of the coasting capabilities of the car. The consumption would be much lower if you did. So, redo the test! Last weekend I drove 300 km and I got 21,3 kWh/100 km at where possible around 120 KM/H.
This is not an eco run.
@@bjornnyland it lowers the consumption not the speed! And that means better range, thus less stops to charge, save time! I am sure you could have skipped at least one charge! It looks you don't understand the concept of coasting, but how could you ... your favorite brand does not have that.
Do you still have your EQC? Thoughts 4yrs on? I’ve just picked up an EQC 1886. Enjoying it so far.
Thanks Bjorn; 11h30 is an impressive time , I expect much more. Seems really a good car.
Actually...its pretty bad for 2020!... and the price of vehicle...
So quiet at 180kph, amazing! Thanks for the 1000km list, can't wait for it to populate. :)
I love superchargers next to Hotels - great coffee, croissants and clean toilets
Do the 1000km challenge with optimus Prime or with a other X
How many KW was the hotdog? Seems like it really charged you up.
Hotdog + coke = energy
Great car. Love it. Will have my test ride next week. Thanks for the video.
9:00 In the United States, any Android Auto/Apple Car Play capable EV can see live charger status updates from navigation (Google/Apple Maps) depending on the network. I think it's on the networks now to share that data.
What was the average consumption per whole 1000km trip? Can you please always add this to your summary? Gives a good overall picture of efficiency :) Thank you and keep up the great work!
Brilliant video, as usual. Right on! EQC looks great to..
Awsome video as always!
Bjorn, Will you repeat the test on M3, now that 200kw charging is available? Great test!
Or just wait for Supercharger V3 and 250 kW charging.
Whats M3
@@movax20h its been 8 months,
@@mohammedayesh3927 "M3" is presumably a Tesla Model 3
Great car ! Great video ! Congrats man !
Nice, that you can travel so fast in EQC.
I went to a test drive yesterday and after that I just love EQC - by far the best EV! Would be a fanstastic car for a trip to Europe!
Andy Well, it would be nice to have one but both price and car is to big. So I’m really looking forward to MB EQA instead.
@@MARTENHARD kjøpte du EQA eller?
@@rbkfan200 Nej det blev en Tesla Model 3 istället!
Watching this, it reminded me I saw a fossil Volvo driver pull away while still attached to the pump at Circle K in Nyborg three months ago!
Great video. Now I would like to see how the Kia e-niro handles the 1000km challenge. Maybe the refreshed 2020 model. 😉
thanks for the Test!
Until this vehicle I have oft thought I would NEVER by a Merc. Now I am thinking this will even be an option.
if you don't like Tesla.. look at the Byton M Byte.. blows this EQC away in almost every way.. the interior of the Merc will be nicer materials.. surely quieter.. but in every other way, The M Byte will kill this thing
@@airheart1 The Byte M has this huge screen doesn't it? NoGo!
Also it is huger than EQC isn't it? NoGo for urban use cases, car parks etc.
Sound proofing is a central feature.
Can you do this 1000km with the Etron?
25:58 Thank you! 👍 😂
You should bring a a glass cleaning cloth for your screens. I HATE having so much dust and schmutz on my glass panels.
I would get a seizure after 5 mins with Bjorn music. @6:27
Great review. Impressive charging speed. The Leaf based on your stats is way behind. Will you do a test with the Tesla Model X (SUV comparison)?
Thank you for this clip very informing
That is the dustiest car interior I have seen on YT so far ;) Detailers all over the interwebs are having fits :D
I just realized how small the vertical size that dash screen is. Not the best aspect ratio but it's still nice.
"Switch off ignition before exiting"? Is there something you forgot to mention? :D
Thanks for the video
Makes me want a Tesla even more now
Also -
Always wanted to know How do you keep your energy up on these long trips? Planning a trip soon
The 21MY Jag IPace shows live status of chargers too.
High voltage lines to the left, then just hook up!

Needs Gary Numan - Cars playing in the background. ;)
bjorn, you will need to do the 1000km challenge with a model x. The 1000km challenge is actually a alternative for a race. Also doing it with the egolf and the kona would be interesting and ofcourse the model 3 sr+, now that they are landing in norway in huge quantities.
My God 365wh/km at 125kmh gps speed?! This car is great if you don`t exceed 90kmh speed :) lol...
Also in that last stretch it went from 78% to around 25% charge in 120km if I`m correct...
We always visit the BP(EE) Station...
That hot dog looked soo good
The last Ionity Charger was NOT Brokenlande, but Aalbek
Your voice can be used for Disney movies❤
Go and check out the swedish carbrand polestar 2 it's a daughtercompany of volvo
Bratwurst land haha, love your videos Bjorn
I am really waiting for an electric Mercedes V class. It will be ultimate family EV.
The EQV is coming :)
How much money cost this trip on this fast chargers ?
@@batmann2o No way one could achieve 20 km per litre (5 l per 100 km) with an SUV like this at motorway speeds of mostly 130 km/h. I think 7 or 8 litres are more realistic.
@@MikeDeeee And 180km/h even for just a few minutes in a "frugal" diesel suddenly isn't that frugal any more.
Please compare apples to apples.
You are comparing motorway fuel prices and a large SUV with lots of godies on board with a diesel doing 5l/100km.
It really is a bend comparison.
Audi Q7 with 3.0Tdi 130km/h on cruise control takes 7.9l/100km (this is no aircon, no music, 1 person, flat road and no headwind at least what I have achieved recently).
8l/100km motorway speed is a great result for a badly shaped SUV.
With aircon and music and headwind I would most likely hit 9l/100km.
Price of fuel was £1.42 so €1.60.
8×1.6=12.80
€13/100km.
Compare it to EQC which is quite uneconomical for an EV and here you have your comparison.
When charged daily at home there is not a single moped which can touch my own EV when comparing fuel expenses.
So I prefer my silent SUV rather than a screeming moped.
batmann2o
Well. GLC consumption is around 6-7l/100km. Add a bit more for 130km speeds and headwinds 7-8 is not unreasonable.
The Ionity chargers are a bit steep - but that applies mainly to longer trips. Everyday commuting, when charging at household electric tariffs, is a lot cheaper, whereas for a fossil car the cost per litre is no lower.
@@batmann2o If you can afford a EQC then some 20e per 1000km roadtrip is no issue, you would probably use way more money on the road anyways so the rapid charging is a bargain.
How does this 11:30 compare to e-tron or i-Pace?
Is there some kind of utility mode or camping mode available in the EQC?
Nice stuff
29:00 bacon isn’t sustainable? But flying avocados from the other side of the world is. Ok
When will you do the Model S Raven endurance test?
BjenzBjørn for the win!
Bjorn is having a sugar rush. Shieettt
Looks good, all we need now is super chargers 🔌...
The dual-hotdog is for EV drivers who has dual-motors ;)
What time would you estimate for a Model 3 SR+ over 1000km?
I guess around 90km/h.
I would love to see the 100km challenge on SR+!!
Bjørn’s group drove a M3 LR 2781 km in 24 hours - That works out to 1000 km in 8 hours, 39 minutes. Add an hour for an extra stop, & you should get a reasonable figure for the M3 SR+.
Much more headwind on this 1000km than the others that where roundt trip?
At 60kWh+ per 100km it's equivalent to an ICE car.
Does the EQC have air suspension?
spring suspension in the front air suspension for the rear axle, ( no adaptive system available) .
MrPikkoz thank you. 👍
Any plans for a 1000 km challenge with e-tron?
+Henrik Ingvarsson yes
@@bjornnyland Härligt!
Saltholm is the border 20.51
Can you display at the end the total/average energy spent? Should be free for you, but it's valuable info for actual drivers
the car reset the trip meters :(
only in this test, can estimate the numbers here as well based on the charging receipts
cool recommand
Hi Thanks for the Video!
29:29 gud stuff!! im hungry now Lol
This seems to be an incredible vehicle. I wish Mercedes-Benz would bring it to Australia in the non-AMG trim.
When are you going to do the 1000 kM challenge with E-Tron?
I-Pace and Model S Raven long range too please.
Bjorn have you ever drink only water during a trip??
I’ll take some extra wind noise for the ability to go 100miles more per charge.
We have that issue in the UK with a lot of rapid chargers being at hotels, or petrol stations "off the beaten track". Bit of a pain when you're on a motorway like the M25 around London and have to pull off and take a 20km detour into a town to find a place to juice up. Quite a lot of the chargers on main routes are either broken or heavily used, so sometimes a detour is the only option.
Real pics of the UK chargers right now.
My favourites are Holiday Inn but I mainly work and charge around my town now.
However I hope all the recent price increases we had will be followed with their promises of the new ultra fast Web of chargers.
If it will go into pockets of fat cats than we are all doomed when we get more EVs at least when travelling far.
Around the town I say EV is the best choice ever and I'm 100% certain I will get another one for my wife as soon as I get my ICE car sold.
Bjorn please can you do the 1000km challenge in a 64kWh Kona 👍
how many kwh consumed?
Hi Bjorn, a small suggestion:
Update your channel description. It says you do mainly Tesla Model X videos...
Love your videos btw
Big cars use more power it's just obvious. If only I could afford this car I wouldn't complain of the consumption it's just luxury.
Greetings from Finland! Is time for 1000km challenge😎
which EV hammers the least amount of bugs? which EV hammers them the hardest?
Bjorn, are the rear seats heated in the EQC?
It's an extra. But can be ordered.
You said it was smaller inside than Kona?? Banana Box test!
I think Björn said "smaller than the e-Niro", which is quite a bit larger than the Kona Electric.
I see 552km range with EQC at the moment with full charge.
Do 1000km challenge in Optimus Prime!
39:29 and 2½ years later Elon proved you/us wrong. For the record. I would have said the same back then :)
I just wonder if anybody knows if a Nissan LEAF of USA spec can be charged and used in Europe?
nevoi comerciale it should be able to since it uses CHAdeMo, if it were to use CCS then it can’t charge as CCS port in Europe is different than the one in USA
@@harsimranbansal5355 How about household charge? In Europe is using 230 V 50 Hz while in North America 110 V 60 Hz. For old EV with small range household charging is most used one.
@@harsimranbansal5355 I meant slow charging at home which is most common case for commuters in Europe and elsewhere. One always can buy an adapter but the household current in Europe is 50 Hz 230 V while in North America is 60 Hz 110 V, thus the charging device built in the EV has to have support for this range of current abilities. Moreover in North America the so called relatively fast chargers installed in homes using 3 phase current are designed for 220 V while in Europe it can be as high as 380 V. One can read on the adapter of laptops (designed for worldwide use) support for both types of currents while that support is lacking on single market oriented devices such as TV, blue ray players, home appliances, vacuum cleaners, hair clippers and so on. I highly doubt Nissan spent extra money to build in the worldwide support in their Nissan LEAF.
I wonder why all the “infotainment”-screens have to be so freakin laggy.. seems to be like that for most cars, Tesla’s seems to be a bit better though?
Teslas newest MCU 2.0 that is in all Model 3s and newer S and X is like an ipad. Extremely quick and responsive.
E. Q. Bjørn? Is that Edward Quincy?
This is a classic example how high consumption completly ruins good charging. The charging speed is completely alright, ober 80 kW at over 50% is good. But if it eats 35 kWh/100km, the fast charging is completely irrelevant. With my 'old' 2015 Model S 85D I would give this car a run for it's money. And I can barely charge 60kW at 50% with my 100k km battery.
And this car is really inefficient at speeds above 100kmh, as a matter of fact its a joke at 130kmh! They say its a large SUV but I only see a huge bonnet !?, not so much big car...(compare to e-tron let alone model x)
Model x 1000 km challenge?
That bridge view at ruclips.net/video/qB2mLgFMU9I/видео.html looks like a gateway to heaven really.
Googlemaps will show all this on your phone.
Model 3 with 200kW and Model X LR raven to get some benchmark tests to compare the other EVs to.
and now we will enter Bratwurstland . hehe
IONIQ also shows live status of chargers - use online chargers-function...
Gong
Looks like those 10" displays are too small for optimal user experience!
Right?? They looked pathetic.. it looked like he was on a big phone.. lol.. I guess I'm way to used to Teslas at this point.. these screens are just not acceptable to me.. I would never even consider this thing, just based on that alone. It looks horrible! But there's a lot of other reasons I'd never consider it too...
Only 30 mins faster than the Ioniq28- that wasn't charging at full speed! I'll forego the ambient lights thanks ;)
For me rain causes less traction. This reduces range.
